Question

Annie has a compost pile that produces 12 pounds of compost a day from yard waste. Which function expresses the amount of compost (c) as a function of the number of days (d)?

Answer 1

Answer:

Function will be c = 12d.

Step-by-step explanation:

Annie has a compost pile that produces 12 pounds of compost every day from yard waste.

Now we can get the compost as given in the table.

Days                              1     2    3     4

Amount of compost(c) 12  24  36  48

Here we see the table is an arithmetic series.

If the amount of compost is c and number of days as d . Therefore the relation between c and d is

c = 12d

Answer 2

The total amount of compost Annie gets is 12 every day
c equals 12 every d
c = 12d
